29 quotes
Directed by: Robert Zemeckis
Starring: Bruce Willis, Goldie Hawn, Isabella Rossellini, Meryl Streep
Madeleine: Could you just not breathe?
Lisle: Drink that potion, and you'll never grow even one day older. Don't drink it, and continue to watch yourself rot.
Madeline Ashton: Ernest... my ass! I can see MY ASS.
Helen: Ernest, ask me to go. Ask me to leave this house immediately.
Ernest: You just got here.
Ernest: Well, from now on, I'm going to be the kind of idiot I want to be.
Helen: You have no talent for poverty.
Lisle: We are creatures of the spring, you and I.
Lisle: He won't get far. Not at his age.
Lisle Von Rhuman: This is life's ultimate cruelty. It offers us a taste of youth and vitality, and then it makes us witness our own decay.
Continuity mistake: When Meryl Streep "blasts" Goldie Hawn with the shotgun and Goldie falls into the pool of water, she falls in backwards. However, when we see her get up, she is getting up from a face-down position. (01:05:25 - 01:07:10)
Trivia: When Madeleine is in the morgue, we get a shot of a table and on that table is a jar with a brain and formaldehyde in it, and on the jar is a sign and the sign says "abnormal." This is a homage to the film "Young Frankenstein": Dr Frankenstein sent Igor to the morgue to get a specific brain, an intelligent man's brain, but Igor was startled and dropped the intelligent brain, so looked around for another one and he did: He found a brain with the label "abnormal" on it, and that is why the monster was so hard to teach and control.
